East Midlands Long Stay 1

“ The directions were brilliant and didn't need the SatNav, entry and exit from the carpark was easy and didn't have to wait long for the bus to or from the airport. Would use this one again.” - Sally Wells

Directions

Leave the M1 at junction 24. You'll then come to a large roundabout and will need to take the third exit if you're coming from the north, and the first exit if you're coming from the south onto the A453 Ashby Road. Keep on this road until you come to another roundabout and take the third exit and keep on Ashby road. Take the first exit at the next roundabout and take the next right turn by the health club. Shortly after, you'll come to yet another roundabout and should take the first exit onto Viscount Road. Take the first exit at the next roundabout and keep on Viscount Road. Turn left onto Ambassador Road. Carry on along this road until you get to a roundabout where you'll need to take the second exit. You'll see the car park on your left.

Arrival procedure

Please check your booking confirmation for details.

If nothing happens, please press the button marked 'assistance' to speak to a member of staff through the intercom. They'll ask you to confirm your details.

Please don't insert your credit or debit card into the barrier at any point or you will be charged again for your parking. Also, don't press the ticket button, as this will stop you being able to gain entry.

It was easy after we went to the right park and on the return it was simple.November 16, 2018

The actual car park was fine and it's location relative to the airport terminal was accurately described on the website. However, directions to the exit of the airport (from Long Stay 1) were inadequate and we took two wrong turnings. Also there should be more frequent buses at peak times taking returning passengers from the Arrivals Terminal to the Car Parks. Many holiday tour operators have late returning flights (around midnight) and we, along with dozens of other returning holiday-makers, stood in the cold outside waiting for a bus (15 minutes is a long time out in the open at 1.30 in the morning). If more buses can't be arranged, then a much larger enclosed bus shelter should be provided. August 31, 2018

Smooth trip both going and coming. Compact terminal, good shops and dining. Rapid check in.
Only complaint would be the signage exiting the long car park. Late at night several cars got lost into dead ends.October 30, 2017
